Interview with Prathul

A volunteer named prathul visited STEMLAND about 5 months ago.

He was supporting the English content team in improving children’s english skills. He also handled Geography classes for 8th graders at Isai Ambalam.

Who is Prathul ?

A young energetic man who once was a fashion designer living a luxurious life and then all of a sudden left this ordinary life to explore the world. He always believed that there is more to life than just making money, having high social status, and high paying career. There was a part of him that wanted the adrenaline rush, adventure and curiosity. The man who has explored  all the continents and many countries with just his backpack.

Prathul’s  message :
Some places leave an inedible mark on our lives. Auroville was and will always be that place that I would keep coming back to… It resonates my love for learning and living…
Though I’ve come to Auroville few times in the past, this time it has been the start of a new chapter in my life. I couldn’t have asked for a more gratifying, loving, resourceful and humbling 5 months. 5 months!!! The longest I have ever been in a place… And I owe it all to the wonderful people I met here, the initiatives I have been a part of, the people I worked with, the immense knowledge that I have gained, the laughs we shared…. And so much more. I hope I will come back soon to learn, contribute and grow more together.
Thank you. My heart is full and overwhelmed with all that I have received. Thank you. Thank you.
